  thread_group doesn't allow me to iterate the group.  It only will
allow me to join_all or interrupt_all, but not perform arbitrary actions
on all of them, or iterate them so I can do whatever I need/want...

  I was mostly inquiring because it was suggested that it should work in
the upcoming standards, so I was wondering if it was supposed to work in
boost 1.35.
